This is an original and identified World War II American Defense Medal foremergency service in 1939 & May 1941. It has a Foreign Service Clasp:Issued by the United States Army for military service outside the continental limits of the United States, including service in Alaska. The medal was authorized to military members who performed active duty between September 8, 1939 and December 7, 1941. Members of the United States Army received this medal for any length of service during the eligibility period, provided that they were on orders to active duty for a period of twelve months or longer. The United States Navy excluded Reservists who were on active duty for less than ten days, but otherwise the Navy, United States Marine Corps, and United States Coast Guard awarded the medal to all personnel who served on active duty at any time during the eligibility period (provided they passed their initial physical examinations). This medal was awarded to Private Earl E.
